Strawberry worried about 'junkie-addict' Gooden

Darryl Strawberry is trying to save 1986 New York Mets teammate Dwight Gooden before it's too late.

Strawberry believes Gooden has relapsed into the drug use that derailed his playing career.

The duo, who were the subject of the ESPN's 30 for 30 documentary "Doc & Darryl", were recently scheduled to make a joint public appearance, but Gooden was a no-show.

"He's a complete junkie-addict," Strawberry told the New York's Daily News about Gooden.
